    There, or in any view through the Firmware menu that is listing the various devices you can click on the button at the far right, or you can multi-select and choose to upgrade specific devices.

    what is the difference between 8.10 and 8.12 ?

    As I understand it, 8.10 is deemed a LSR (Long Supported Release) where as 8.12 is a standard release (which has newer features, but risks going EOL quickly [this can be sometimes six months or less].  All depends on your environment and how mission critical your infrastructure is and how quickly you need new functions vs. long term supportability.

    8.7.1.6 is very broken IMHO.  Get yourself onto 8.10.0.10 branch for a far more stable system
